Tomorrow they will be firing up the Large Hadron Collider and will create the Higgs Boson for the first time since the Big Bang. But what they don’t realize is – the Higgs boson IS the Big Bang! The moment it is created our entire universe will be sucked into a quantum singularity creating a new Big Bang and creating another new universe out of this one.
Have you ever wondered if Humans will ever develop the ability to time travel into the past? If that is possible the people from the future should be visiting us now. But they aren’t. Why is that? Because we destroy the universe before we invent time travel. And that’s going tp happen tomorrow. So enjoy the last day of existence because tomorrow it’s all over!

Some people are stuck in “stupid” mode…
#18 Roflmao ! 🙂
You get the ‘Wit of Oscar Wilde’ award for that!
Does anyone know the exact time they plan to switch it on?
I’d like to go on a murderous killing spree tomorrow morning and I’d like to get the timing right.
Like all things wonderful in the Human experience… I refer you to the Simpsons television series.
Lisa’s science experiment evolves into sentient life that Bart tries to destroy. For you Phillistines, you can also watch Futurama where Bender has a civilization on his butt.
Both are cautionary tales of power unchecked.

Wow how un-American. Let’s never do anything but the status quo. Never explore, Never experiment, Never dream. That way we can stay stagnant as a culture. That is so un American I can’t fucking believe it. If you had your way we would have lost to the Soviets.

Relax dickhead! It was a joke. Yours is the typical Republican response, overblown and out of context. He didn’t call Republicans “stupid”or “evil” THAT WAS YOU!!!! Something tells me you have a lot of self loathing.
Yea yea just remember your nut case side threw the fist punch. I only hit back with reason and logic but as usual those things are beyond the grasp of the “feeling” liberal left
#36–J==how is putting a billion dollars into big-bang cosmology and getting whatever that is supposed to get us a better deal than putting a billion dollars into renewable energy technology and creating energy independence and a ton of new jobs and derivative technologies?
Did you read the article posted at #7?–or to restate, if you had a billion dollars to invest in research, where could it BEST be spent==its not an issue of maintaining the status quo or “Never” doing anything. Jeeze, you sound just like a republican!
Gee the numbers just went up by one.
Pmitchel–why do I think you are evil and stupid? Because you are a republican? No. I didn’t know that about you and still don’t. I just see from your postings’ insight that you are evil and stupid.
As Walter, from Jeff Dunham fame, would say…

Do you know what this means?!?
It means we all have the buy the new ipods today!
Crafty Steve Jobs making announcements right before the end of the world.
#32 Thinker – Thanks for the props. 🙂

#4 i agree with you
you should 100% go live with the amish
all this modern technology’s just a boondoggle, science is for smarty pants and elitists
you will be much happier once you denounce it all.
enjoy!
‘cor, its been great you all. My condolences to all the people who chose the wrong religion, or just no religion at all. My even bigger condolences to all those people who decided their religion says they can’t have sex.
The hysteria over the alleged danger behind the LHC is overblown. For one thing, the first collisions won’t be until October, but even when they do happen, there is far more evidence that nothing catastrophic will happen than there is in support of a supercollider-induced cataclysm. I’ll see you at at 2:01am CDT tomorrow morning.

It is not an either or proposition. We can do both. It is part of the American sprit to explore new frontiers. Science of this kind is the new frontier. The amount of money in THIS country spends on science programs is miniscule compared to that spent on War. Now I ask you if you had a billion dollars to spend where would be a better place to spend it? I don’t recall MikeN being all that upset about the pointless war America finds it self engaged in right now. That cost a fuck load more than Fermi lab funding which has been cut. Oh yeah what about that $398 million bridge to nowhere? What about the $100 million in unused airline tickets the Defense Department. What about the Credit Card Scandal at the department of defense? $102,400 for entertainment, $48,250 for gambling, 69,300 for cruises, and $73,950 for exotic dance clubs. Oh and what about the $25 BILLION missing dollars in unreconciled transactions. That is just the tip of the ice burg Where is a all the bitching about that??
When MikeN has an answer for these wasteful spending by REPUBLICANS he can get back to me about cutting the budget for Science.
Last time this topic arose, we had an involved discussion of particle theory. This conversation was refreshingly amusing until the mouth-frothers got started.
Geez, i hope tomorrow is the end of the world because I just got my health care bill and I really don’t want to pay those farkers!
All that money and all they could come up with was a McDonald’s Playland?
I hope all those slides are connected otherwise it’s a pretty crappy design.
If the universe ends tomorrow, then it’s Bush’s fault. If it doesn’t, then Obama has saved us.
Laugh it up, fuzzballs.
Consider there are more stars than all the grains of sand on all the beaches of the Earth. The universe is more than 13 billion years old. It should be teeming with intelligent life. But Fermi’s Paradox
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermi_paradox
asks: So where is everybody?
Now, one guess as to what every single one of those life forms eventually got around to trying…
In the immortal words (well, until tomorrow anyway) of Peter Lorre:

(And now we’ll see who laughs last for me having my own nuclear bomb shelter. Stocked with kidnapped genetically perfect women. Some day they will thank me.)
The lack of scientific knowledge on this blog is depressing. I would also like to excoriate all the ding dongs that brought partisan politics into a purely science related article. If I only had an subether signaling device.
I come from the future, 3098 xa. The accelerator was a waste of time but it is currently being used at the Smithsonian of Moscow as an amusement ride.
Chafar Lo Mung!
What I want to know is this:
Will it happen slowly(relatively) so I can enjoy/experience it?
Or
Will the light switch just be flipped off?
It does remind me of the Y2K end of the world insanity.
@ibdense
If it happens it will be the light switch. Have someone explain “inflation” to you.
I come in peace take me to your leader so I might stop the black hole, (see on our intertelvion show on planet ARIGON channel 489238430932840239082380 every sunday were we bust and destory another planet before they destory the universe KEKEKKEKEKEKEKEKEK)
